HARLINGEN, Texas (February 25, 2009)--A camera the family of the late country singer Freddy Fender lost after shooting photos of Fender’s San Benito gravesite has been returned.

Fender's daughter, Tammy Huerta said the camera was inadvertently left on top of the car when the family left the cemetery more than two weeks ago.

Huerta made a public appeal for return of the camera, which she says contained images of her father that she planned to use in a book.

Andrew Anguiano says he found the camera after almost running over it and arranged for its return. Huerta says she mailed him a cash reward in an undisclosed amount.

Fender, who was born Baldemar Huerta in San Benito, scored hits with such songs as "When the Last Teardrop Falls."

It says "returned TO late Texas Country Star's Family"...late Texas Country Star's Family is who the camera was returned to...not "returned TOO late"...there is a difference.

Why does the title in the story say the camera was sent to late?

Andrew, Freddy would be proud of you and so am I. An honest person.
